Hi All,
My company works almost exclusively with SonicWALLs, but we have a few clients with Cisco ASAs and one new client with a FortiNet FortiGate 80C.
The FortiNet client's firewall services are up for renewal, and I was looking at replacing their device with a pair of SonicWALL NSA 240's in HA.
Has anyone used both that can provide some opinions on how these two devices compare? I don't want the client to lose any significant functionality moving to the NSA 240, and I don't know much about FortiGates.
How are the IPS, Content Filtering, and Antivirus/Antispam services between the two? Are they comparable to eachother, or is one significantly better than the other?
If the devices are about equal in terms of efffectiveness and performance then I will get them onto the NSA's, but if the 80C is significantly better I'll just stick with renewing their services.
Thanks for your help!
Nick
